Philadelphia Audio Tour: Revolution, Faith, & Founders Along the Waterfront

Audio guide14 stops

A centuries-old crypt beneath city streets waits just steps from a floating warship bristling with secrets. Philadelphia hides a pulse of rebellion and invention in its heart. This self-guided audio tour plunges you into history’s echo chambers and side alleys. Walk at your own pace to uncover the stories and places others hurry by. Why did spies whisper beneath the gilded ceiling of the First Bank of the United States? What last commands rang out across the deck of the USS Olympia before the cannons fell silent forever? Did a hidden code once slip through the doors of Congregation Mikveh Israel, changing the fate of the Revolution? Follow winding cobblestones and shadowed corridors. Step through the clangor of forgotten debates and the hush of nighttime conspiracies. The city reveals new colors with each turn. Start the journey now and let Philadelphia’s secrets burst into the light.
